Metastases to the penis from rectocolic adenocarcinoma are extremely uncommon with 50 cases reported; the diagnosis is often delayed and the prognosis is very poor. The choice between an aggressive surgical approach and a palliative treatment is difficult, but surgery seems to give the best results in limited penile lesions. The authors report a case of metastatic involvement of the penis by a recurrent rectocolic adenocarcinoma in a 42 year old patient. A MR scan was performed before surgical treatment of both lesions.
